Broken Jade

Steel, ocean winds
Fly to their kin
Smoke clouds the sky
Burns my black eyes.

They come for me driven by unseen force
Through the thick smoke on a fateful course
Unseen am I, unmatched is my iron will
The smoke of gunfire growing even thicker still.

They come for me
With unseen force
Through the thick smoke
Drawn by fate's course.

Past lives return
Trapped within we burn
Longing returns
As my brothers burn.

Lights of ancestors' eyes shine so bright in the dark
Guiding me knowingly toward my end
Steady hands carry me toward my perfect death
One last time I ask that you will defend.

Cold comfort as I fall
Death coming for you all
Give my life for the sun
In fire existence undone.

Past lives return
Propellers burn
Longing returns
As my brothers burn.

Blades keep swirling around
Memories cannot be found.

Lights of my true love's eyes shine so bright in the dark
Guiding me knowingly toward my end
Steady hands carry me toward my perfect death
One last time I ask that you will defend.

Cold comfort as I fall
Death coming for you all
Give my life for the sun
In fire existence undone.

Carry my soul on the winds of the sea
To darkened depths, I commend my body
Carry my soul on the winds of the sea
To mother island for all eternity.
